The left-wing NPR, that is partly funded by over-burdened taxpayers, has one overriding mission, and that’s to protects its creator and benefactor: the federal government.

Despite its place on the taxpayer teat, like the government it so fervently protects, NPR is still managing to operate at a deficit. NPR is currently offering its employees voluntary buyouts in the hopes of overcoming a cash buyout of $6.1 million, which NPR says is 3% of its revenues.
